OK I installed the Mandrake 2005 on my laptop today. I was having problems seeing the login screen with the 10.1 version.
I am now posting this from the Mandrake 2005 SE version. Obviously I can now see the login screen and things are great except.....my display, set to 1024x768 24bbp is more like a 640x480 screen. The images are really clear but I have to "scroll" around even my desktop.
When I did the install, I got a message about my laptop being able to support multiple displays. I had the install configure all heads independently. The display settings show up with 1024x768 but the display refresh is set to "0" and no other option is given.
I do not use two monitor for anything (heck I have a hard enough time concentrating on one!!!).
I am putting my Xorg.conf file in here to see if any of the myriad of geniuses on this forum can help me. All I want is one screen (display) at 1024x768 that I don't have to scroll around to see the desktop.
Thank you for any help that can be given.
